As a former smoker who carried my cigarette butts until I found a trash can, I truly hate those assholes.
Comment on Why do smokers specifically seem to be disproportionally bad for littering?

They don’t consider it littering. That the cigarette butt will somehow just magically degrade like a fallen leaf. It truly is remarkable how selfish smokers can be.

At least some of them probably genuinely believe that. Maybe we should replace some of the gore pics on cigarette packets with information about environmental effects …

Like how birds collect the butts and use them to prevent parasites in their nests?

more like how many animals eat then and get poisoned.

Yeah, that too.

My first time hearing the word “biodegradable” as a kid was after asking my dad why he threw his cigarette butts into the water when we were fishing.
